Good to see we've made progress here. I just wrote a massive post but stupidly closed the tab in error. Probably for the best as it was turning into a bit of a rant and probably just reiterated what's been said a million times on this forum.
It's excruciating to watch us at home at the moment, our tactics are all wrong and yet again it looks like Wilson's struggling to motivate a team to drag themselves over the finish line.
In short I'm not impressed with:
Instead of taking responsibility for some of the poor performances at home it's annoying to see him starting to point blame towards the anxiety of the fans. There's a quick way to fix that and it involves getting stuck in and trying to force the lead in the first 20 minutes of the game. It's not the missed chances that people moan and groan about as he said yesterday, it's the fact we consistently manage to waste 90 minutes forcing the keeper of substantially inferior away teams to make a couple of saves at most. We usually have to watch a first half where the opposition look to create more than we do even when they're playing a counter attacking style.
It's not good enough Wilson. Stop making excuses, tell us you know we need to improve and you'll be kicking ten bells of shit out of anyone coming back in at half time with a clean shirt on next week. Oh and dropping Doyle and giving Elliot Whitehouse a chance wouldn't go amiss either.
Thanks for reading, that makes me feel a tad better.

In short I'm not impressed with:
- The signing of Forte or Poleon in to replace Blackman
- The repeated misuse of players (not wingers) on the wrong wings or on the wing at all
- The inability of our fullbacks to contribute offensively due to either being shit scared or just shit
- The fact Mcdonald can barely manage a decent 45 minutes in a game this season
- The fact Doyle can barely manage a decent 10 minutes in a game
- Our inability to play simple balls to the feet of our strikers and random choices to instead kick it at their face or over their heads
- Our pace/tempo/general effort and will to take a lead at home
- The lack of game time for home grown prospects that look to offer far more than some of the more experienced players that are not performing.
- Wilson's inability to change anything happening during a game
- The fact we've managed less than a handful of games under Wilson's tenure where we've performed well in both halves
- Our reliance at home of keeping things tight, trying not to concede in the first half which has resulted in us only being in the lead 5 times out of 19 at half time this season.
